  Caissanist: <Son has high potential too bad he doesn't have the resource. He (and other asian gifted players)need to move to Europe like Anand did.>

I wonder what kind of relationship he has with Le Quang Liem. If they have a reasonably healthy friendship/rivalry, then there's no reason why they couldn't push each other into the world's elite by their early twenties, the way that Bruzon and Dominguez did in Cuba. Of course, if he wanted to get above that level (mid-2600s), then maybe a move would be necessary at that point.

Oct-20-06   crazy monk: We see many asians reach mid 2500 then stop. Even poor country like Myanmar has quite a few 2500. While Bruzon & Dominquez and Indian GMs stay in their country, they also participate in Euro and tournament around the globe. The Chinese start to do so too and their GMs approaching 2700. A few Vietnamese GMs sometime flew to Hungary for training (WGM Hoang Thanh Trang is playing for Hungary permanently). So I'm hoping for all chess prodigy in poor regions could reach their potential.

Feb-21-07   samsal27: Fantastic win today by the Asian Junior Champ against Viktor Bologan in Aeroflot tournament!
Feb-22-07   samsal27: Truongson finished strong beating GM Valerij Popov (2590) in the last round. He finished 27th in the field of 88 players.
Feb-23-07   wordfun: I had the chance to get an autograph with this teenager during SEA Games in Tagaytay City Philippines. When my friends and I approached him for a picture-taking and autograph, he was a bit shocked that he had chess fans in the Philippines. I watched him play in action! It seems he has a Mona Lisa smile face while playing. He frequently smiles sheepishly. It amazes me no end. Long live GM Ngoc Truong Son!!! If you read this GM Ngoc, we admire your plays. Hope you visit Philippines again..
Feb-23-07   NguyenVo: Sweet, he made player of the day. I've been following his games at Aeroflot for the past few days. Very good performance.

  Resignation Trap: Happy 18th birthday!

In your honor, I propose a toast of champ - er, I mean lemonade. Yeah, lemonade, that's right! See: http://www.chesspro.ru/_images/mate... . Le Quang Liem is on the left.

  Resignation Trap: In these three consecutive games from Aeroflot 2008 (rounds 7-9) he played a grand total of 365 moves, which must be some type of record: Ngoc Truongson Nguyen vs Motylev, 2008 , Jobava vs Ngoc Truongson Nguyen, 2008 and Ngoc Truongson Nguyen vs M Vachier Lagrave, 2008 .
Nov-22-08   crazy monk: Truongson has the potential to be the first Vietnamese to reach 2700. He need to play in stronger tournaments though.
Apr-05-09   supertimchan: He is not even 2600.

  wordfunph: <supertimchan> give him the chance and he can break 2600. GM Truong Son has all the potential to hit 2600 before he reaches 20.
